Physical mechanism of δ-δ′-ε phase stability in plutonium

Based on first-principle calculations, we have systematically explored the nature of the elastic stability and the δ-δ′-ε phase transitions in pure Pu at high temperature. It is found that, both the electron-phonon coupling and the spin fluctuation effects tend to decrease the tetragonal elastic con...
